It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Seems like a potentially interesting commuter vehicle...

When it finally hits the road, ownership won’t be an option either, as the Vigoz will only be offered on subscription

...never mind.

In all honesty, once self driving cars are an actual thing, individual car ownership won't really need to be a thing anymore. Which is great for the environment.

I think this idea ignores the secondary utility of cars as a storage space.

And as home batteries.

That's one hell of an expensive storage solution.
